Original owner of a 2004 198 Elite.
Had the boat out on the upper Chesapeake yesterday and noticed for the first time in 16 years the fuel gauge needle bouncing around erratically at times. I probably actually had 1/2 a tank of gas but the needle was going from (below E) to full, back to half. It eventually stopped doing this and leveled out to show a little bit less than 1/2 tank as expected. This wasn’t caused by a boat wake. Any ideas — Gauge going bad or is there an easy to get to sending unit for the fuel level (like behind the middle seat - unscrew the panel). Part numbers ?
